7 Perfect Colors to Paint Your Mudroom

Mudrooms are often the first thing you and your guests see when they enter your home, so why not put as much effort into it as you do every other room in your house? Your mudroom might be part of a double-duty room, like a laundry room that you pass through from the garage, a nook that you've created under the stairs near your front door, or you could be lucky enough to have a whole mudroom entryway to decorate to your heart's content.

The secret to creating a beautiful and functional mudroom is focusing on flow, creating the right organization layout, and decorating with the right colors. Though this little space is a pass-through area, you'll want to give it the same care and style as you would a foyer.

The truth is the prettier your mudroom is, the less likely you'll turn it into a pile of coats, shoes, and knick-knacks that belong elsewhere. It's much easier to let things pile up in a room that lacks style and purpose.

Here are the best paint colors for every mudroom so you can get started redecorating this often neglected space.
